    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

    Join Sherry Simpson as she undertakes a personal series of wonderfully written adventures in Alaska.

    • Author: Sherry Simpson
    • Hardcover; 229 pages
    • Sasquatch Books; copyright 2008

    Alaska is a place of great adventure and exploration. After having lived in The Great Land nearly all her life, Sherry Simpson realized that she had not scaled mountains, trekked across wild tundra or blazed trails through virgin forests. Did that fact make her less of an Alaskan?

    In the series of adventures that composeThe Accidental Explorer , Simpson recounts the experience of an ordinary woman confronting the vast expanses of water and terrain in Alaska as she maps her own sense of place and self in a country that seems to require exploration by its inhabitants.

    Can an ordinary, not especially heroic person be an adventurer? If she sets out in a wild place like Alaska, what will she find there, and what will she learn about the place she calls home? Throughout this compelling and probing book, Sherry Simpson illuminates the act of exploration as both a feat of extraordinary effort and as an everyday practice.

    Made in USA.
